Remember those bright red fruit roll-ups you used to eat as a child?  Remember how they used to turn your tongue red and they mostly tasted like flavored sugar?  When I was a kid, I ate these fruit-roll ups on the daily, and the exorbitant amounts of sugar and corn-syrup contained in these kinds of snacks made me incredibly sick and I'd always spend the day with a stomach-ache.

Well, we have now come up with a solution!  These fruit roll-ups taste like candy, are refined sugar-free, and contain necessary nutrients from real fruit.  The awesome thing about this recipe is that you can tweek this recipe to your liking.  I'd highly recommend tasting your fruit puree before drying it, and if you feel like it needs more sweeter or cinnamon, you do you.  You also don't have to use plums.  Whatever fruit you like will make this recipe delicious and successful!

Ingredients:
6 cups plums (cut in half and pitted, they do not have to be peeled)
1/2 cup raw honey
2 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
2 tsp. ground cinnamon (if desired)
1/4 tsp. cloves (if desired)

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 170°F or use a dehydrator.
  2. Puree ingredients together in a blender until smooth.
  3. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or line your dehydrator wracks with parchment paper.
  4. Pour mixture evenly onto baking sheets or dehydrator wracks.
  5. Place in oven and cook until firm and no longer sticky to the touch (3-4 hours in most ovens) or dehydrate at 135° for anywhere from 6-12 hours.
  6. After fruit puree is completely dry, remove from oven or dehydrator.  Cut into strips and roll them up if desired.
​*Store in a cool place.

    Food is one of the greatest forms of science, art, medicine, and sustenance all at the same time!  It's what feeds our lives and pumps through our blood.  It's what connects us and what gives us energy to fulfill our purpose.  It is for that reason that I have a deep passion for discovering, cooking, and eating only the most nutrient dense foods.  In my kitchen, we only use organic, whole ingredients that feed the body, as well as the mind and soul.  My hope is to inspire healing through healthy  AND delicious food that feeds not only our stomachs, but also our hunger for connection and quality of life.
